Criminal
Song Details
Fiona Apple
One Hit Wonders
Ive been a bad, bad girl Ive been careless with a delicate man And its a sad, sad world When a girl will break a boy Just because she can Dont you tell me to deny it Ive done wrong and I wanna suffer for my sins Ive come to you cause I need guidance to be true And I just dont know where I can begin What I need is a good defense Cause Im feelin like a criminal And I need to be redeemed To the one Ive sinned against Because hes all I ever knew of love Heaven help me for the way I am Save me from these evil deeds before I get them done I know tomorrow brings the consequence at hand But I keep livin this day Like the next will never come Oh help me, but dont tell me to deny it Ive got to cleanse myself Of all these lies til Im good enough for him Ive got a lot to lose And Im bettin high so Im beggin you Before it ends Just tell me where I begin What I need is a good defense Cause Im feelin like a criminal And I need to be redeemed To the one Ive sinned against Because hes all I ever knew of love Let me know the way Before theres hell to pay Give me room to lay the law and let me go Ive got to make a play To make my lover stay So what would an angel say The devil wants to know What I need is a good defense Cause Im feelin like a criminal And I need to be redeemed To the one Ive sinned against Because hes all I ever knew of love
